I share your dislike of showdances. mainly because in the past the pros go overboard now that they can do lifts. Include lifts by all means but make them fit in with the dancing. Actually now that I mention it, include dancing please! I hate that so many couples come out and just start lifting and flicking and jumping around and forget to actually dance. That's why I liked Alesha and Tom's showdances - the lifts were there but they were part of an actual dance. I hope that's what we get this year, although I'm sure Aliona will have to be restrained from a full on gymnastic routine.”

I doubt there'll be a need, Aliona isn't the gymnast.
I can imagine it being too heavily focused on gymnastics seeing as he can easily do somersaults etc. With some of the crazy choreography and props used by Aliona it wouldn't surprise me if she started with a floor routine and culminated with the use of uneven bars 
now that would be a prop to beat all others
